The shared library just isn't called libpgsql.so, but libpq.so (that dates back to the day when PostgreSQL was simply Postgres, I guess). How to find out if you don't already know? $ apt-cache search libpgsql libpgsql2 - Shared library libpq.so.2 for PostgreSQL postgresql-dev - Header files for libpq (postgresql library) libpgsql-ruby - PostgreSQL extension module for programming language Ruby netsaint-plugins-pgsql - check_pgsql plugin for NetSaint Ok, so the package's called libpgsql2. $ dpkg -L libpgsql2 | fgrep .so /usr/lib/libpq++.so.4.0 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2.2 /usr/lib/libpgeasy.so.2.2 /usr/lib/libpq++.so.4 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2 /usr/lib/libpgeasy.so.2 Hurray, /usr/lib/libpq.so.2.2 and /usr/lib/libpq.so.2 are what we were looking for.
